Maintenance Planning, Scheduling, Cost Control and Outage Management is designed to build competency in Work Control as a primary skill set in the Competency Map for Facilities Maintenance Management. The course will focus on the six phases of work management (work identification, planning, prioritization, scheduling, execution and history capture). Also covered will be: optimizing preventive and condition-monitoring activities, critical equipment analysis and critical spares control, managing shutdowns/turnarounds, emergency response work, and developing meaningful Key Performance Indicators. The objective of this course is to develop a sound understanding of work control so that delegates’ work management systems can be improved and streamlined to gain the results of higher productivity, greater equipment/process reliability, and lower operational costs. Critical issues, relevant to the participant’s own experiences, are identified and analyzed to maximize effectiveness and equipment care standards.

This programme is designed to provide maintenance planners, maintenance and reliability engineering, and maintenance managers with the skills and knowledge to enable and facilitate the development of an advanced and integrated maintenance cost control management system, outage management and asset management. Cost control, outage management and asset management is designed to build competency in work control as a primary skill set in the competency map for facilities maintenance management. Maintenance cost control, outage management and asset management introduces delegates to concepts and techniques that can help to lift the maintenance performance and the contribution of maintenance to business performance to a higher level.

In particular, this programme introduces delegates to techniques to drive improvements to maintenance performance through more disciplined approaches to management and workflow control processes, reliability improvement and optimization of preventive maintenance, the use of effective performance measures and decision making, and the implementation of effective logistics support for maintenance. Also covered will be: optimizing preventive and condition-monitoring activities, critical equipment analysis and critical spares control, emergency response work, and developing meaningful Key Performance Indicators. The objective of this course is to develop a sound understanding of work control so that delegates’ work management systems can be improved and streamlined to gain the results of higher productivity, greater equipment/process reliability, and lower operational costs. Critical issues, relevant to the participant’s own experiences, are identified and analyzed to maximize effectiveness and equipment care standards. Participants can expect to formulate balanced approach to an appropriate maintenance strategy and also explore at a deep and meaningful level the true value of maintenance.
